San Francisco Bay Area's UNJUST have inked a European deal with German label Swell Creek Records for their fourth album, entitled "To Lose a Name", due out July 25th. The CD was recorded with producer/engineer Mark Keaton (MACHINE HEAD, ONE MAN ARMY, MR. T EXPERIENCE, KGB) and mixed by Ryan Massey at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, California. UNJUST have been on a break focusing on family, animating Oscar winning films, mixed martial arts and relaxing. The band have also gone back to the two guitar format with the departure of Thom Tucker.

Commented the band: "With such flattering reviews in the German and European press by major magazines and fanzines of an unsigned band like us we knew it was only a matter of time before our music was recognized by a label. Swell Creek Records have great distribution and we couldn't be happier to work with them. We will be playing soon with Mendoza back on guitar, and fun guest jams." More...

After eight years of playing together, San Francisco Bay Area's UNJUST and keyboardist Thom Tucker have decided to part ways.

"Over the last few years we have constantly bumped heads on what direction to take the band, [so] it was time for me to leave," Thom said.

Tucker joined the band in 2001 and is featured on the band's last three albums: "Makeshift Grey", "Glow" and "To Lose a Name". UNJUST plans to move forward without keyboards on future recordings, with vocalist Paul Mendoza returning to the guitar. New tour dates supporting the band's latest release, "To Lose a Name", will be announced shortly.

Tucker has signed on to tour with Bay Area band FORTHMORNING for their upcoming Northwest tour in April, and is currently working on a new electronic project, NOSEBLEED ACADEMY, expected to launch later this year. More...
